Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: It’s suitable for any audience, but I think mostly women will find it appealing.

Q: What is the book about?
A: In 1927 Virginia, Grace Langdon is a bright, intelligent sixteen year old with a head full of dreams and a longing for love. She is also trapped by the customs of her time and place, and when her domineering father tries to force her hand in marriage, she flees. Finding her beloved older brother and his wife, who had left Virginia years before to live in Chicago, she begins a new life and finds romance with a handsome neighbor. But the past comes back to haunt her when the man she rejected returns to claim her as his own.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: I’m from a big southern family who still cling to many of the customs of the old days. I’m also a lover of books, especially romantic ones, and I love creating stories that appeal to the heart. I’ve been writing off and on since I was young.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: I’ve tried to be a little unpredictable in my writing, taking it in a direction that the reader might not expect, to keep the story interesting. I’ve also tried to create unique characters who are flawed but worthy of devotion by readers.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: My main hero, Henry, was inspired by UK actor Richard Armitage, whom I first discovered in the BBC mini-series North and South, adapted from the novel by Elizabeth Gaskell. His mannerisms, his way of speaking, and especially his looks, have given him a devoted following of female viewers. I’m one of them, and I would greatly recommend discovering his work.

Your Highest Potential: The New Psychology Of Understanding And Working With Self, By Annette Colby, PhD

Posted by Dan Janal, Your Fearless PR LEADER | June 5th, 2008

Pitch reporters with our up-to-date media databases:

Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: If you answer yes to any of these questions, Your Highest Potential is the book for you!

• Is the impact of your past directing your future?
• Have you developed patterns of behavior that are difficult to break?
• Are you struggling with emotional eating or unsuccessful weight loss?
• Are you tired of feeling stressed, worried, overwhelmed, or depressed?
• Do you want to take your life to the next level but you have been unable to take the steps to make that happen?
• Are you feeling frustrated and confused about what you want and how to move forward?
• Do you feel stuck because you know what you need to do and you just don’t do it?
• Do you want to feel happier and make a difference in the world?

Q: What is the book about?
A: Packed with life lessons never taught in school, this enlightening guide illustrates how to deliberately shape your own destiny by releasing the weight of the past, and growing new beliefs and behavior patterns that propel you into the life of your dreams!

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: That’s a great question! As an expert in personal growth and emotional well-being, I have over two decades of education, knowledge and experience showing people how to create emotional joy, enjoy their bodies, and get excited about being alive. My purpose is to illuminate how to transform difficult emotions, move from depression to joy, love living in a body, and create a fulfilling life.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: This empowering book illustrates that is unnecessary to dredge up old memories or relive emotional pain. However, an unhappy life serves an important function – it brings awareness to where people believe themselves to be helpless, hopeless, unsafe, flawed, or unlovable. Emotional and physical pain is a wake-up call to pay attention to self-limiting beliefs and to value the communication – no matter how painful the message is. With awareness, the life journey can continue forward to identify personally important goals, discover new possibilities, and remove barriers to success.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: Discover Your Highest Potential and live a life of true personal creativity and heartfelt riches! You will emerge from this book a more peaceful and inspired person. If you jump in, I personally guarantee that knowing you have the power to take charge of your life will put you back on the path to a meaningful and fulfilling life.

Who’s Hiding In Your Address Book?: Introducing The Ideal Network For Successful Women, By Mary Kurek

Posted by Dan Janal, Your Fearless PR LEADER | June 3rd, 2008

Pitch reporters with our up-to-date media databases:

Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: Entrepreneurs, female business owners and professionals.

Q: What is the book about?
A: The book introduces a new and simple system for organizing contacts to reach goals quicker and easier. It’s based on the premise that you have an entire staff hiding in your address book (if you knew who they were).

Along with a step-by-step how-go guide, the book includes over 100 networking and marketing tips and resources, real examples and success stories, as well as a link to a site with free resources.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: I’m a former Chamber of Commerce Executive Director and have been professionally networking (meaning I get paid to make business and professional connections for people) for the last six years.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: The book is different because it introduces a system for organizing your contacts, then shows you how to use the contacts to meet specific goals such as securing new clients/customers or putting into motion a marketing plan. It includes the “ideal e-mail campaign” which shows readers how to use a simple, but specific e-mail to generate leads to desired result.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: This the first mainstream book to promote Chambers of Commerce – an entire chapter shows readers how to use their Chamber to speed success. I introduce the model for the Ideal Network Club (action-oriented/results-driven) networking club designed exclusively as an income-producer for Chambers of Commerce.
